Basil is one freak of a kitty....

you should see me right now.

i can barely type because just now Baz decided that he needed cuddles... NOW.

So he jumps up on the chair next to me -- which is really there for that purpose -- so he and Frankie and Winston can sit with me when I'm working on the pc -- and he starts to chirp and purr and head-butt my elbow... so I begin to pet him -- only that isn't enough.... he kind of throws himself forward with his front paws up, so that he's half-climbing me (owwwwwch).

So I then have to either pick him up and let him sit where he likes to sit (up on my shoulder, with his front paws hanging over onto my back and this body being held up by my left arm -- (imagine how babies like to be held, so they can see over your shoulder) -- and if my left arm gets tired (which it inevitably does, because he weighs a TON) and lowers even just a touch, his claws dig in and he tries to pull himself up higher. owwwwwwww!!

The funniest thing is that he'd sit up there all day if I let him (if I could hold his weight up that long!!)... crazy cat.
